Paddy the best journalist there is in New Zealand, yeh right.
How come none of these fabulous one sided leftist bastards knew that things were more than a little dodgy around TVNZ or TV3? How come none of the bosses knew?
Well they were absolutely great at their jobs then weren’t they?///////////. Most journalists investigate all things happening around the world but not in NZ. The lazy useless bastards, busy sitting at their desks on the internet, is about all I can say about all of them.
Surely one of them, any one would have known things were not looking too good financially? Why did NO ONE ask the accountants working there? Surely they must have had meetings management accountants etc or not? Of NOT why not???? Slide off all of you I would say, useless incompetents the lot of you. I hope you don’t get a job as a journalist again. Shame on the lot of you.
Lizziep@0531
Good morning Ma;am.
How come none of these..etc. etc. etc.?
Easily, cos they had become prostitutes to the ardern government, found that in fact they LIKED the guaranteed income that was coming their way, so went along for the ride, ‘cos they were ALWAYS glad to be paid. while deliberately Ignoring the fact that who pays the piper calls the tune
Any morality -type questions about what they were doing, did, of course, immediately of course go out the window, and they convinced themselves that they had absolutely no problems with convincing themselves that they were Reporting without fear or favour’ when in fact they were as much part of the problem as their masters, and indeed some such as Gower seemed to actually glory in their notoriety and power, especially as they could finally say EXACTLY what they thought, and abuse their enemies, and get away with doing-so by hiding behind the government’s skirt if their was any reaction they didn’t like..
As we know, Gower et al were VERY willing participants (Especially as ‘Money talks’) and although they can now cry as much as they want to and say that things are unfair, history shows otherwise; That the NZMSM ‘journalists’ were quite happy to take the money and be stooges.
Buyers remorse? ‘Taint so – and, given the chance they would all willingly do it again.
Correction there sir. Good morning.
They had become prostitutes to many governments over many years and the Nats were as bad. Paul holmes was a Nat fat and so it went.
As long as they could pimp the govt. in many different ways to fill the trough they kept on at it.
Yes Arderns lot were possibly the worst but you have to look a long way back, probably to the Holland govt or even to Savage for media control.
In england it went back to the first uses of the printing press. The Crimean War was instigated because the French and Germans used ,the then new press to harrange the British govt. into going to war up there. Doing their dirty work. (nothing has changed in that respect).
Thank goodness for the internet and peoples ability to podcast etc.
So much more to see and learn without the interference of god botherers and wefs and lbtq’s and so on.
Elon would be the worlds Hero right now.
Oh and Ed’s other post this morning is significant IMHO.
V2 is correct in that governments did not trust independent radio & imposed controls very early in the piece. From https://teara.govt.nz/en/radio/page-1
# “Radio broadcasts in the early 1920s raised fears that uncontrolled use of the spectrum would interfere with government activities.”
# “Due to Labour’s distrust of ‘hostile’ newspaper coverage, New Zealand became the first country to provide regular live broadcasting of Parliament. The government also created the world’s first state-owned commercial radio organisation. Advertising was allowed on commercial stations from 1936. In 1937 the NZBS was split into two divisions, the non-commercial National Broadcasting Service (NBS) and a state-run commercial division, the National Commercial Broadcasting Service (NCBS).”
Government is about control. Governments fear anything that threatens that control.
PM Christopher Luxon to meet US politicians, Nato leaders in Washington DC as fallout from President Joe Biden v Donald Trump continues
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon kicks off his visit to Washington DC early tomorrow morning, meeting US politicians at Capitol Hill before attending the Nato Summit later in the week.
In an interview with the NZ Herald ahead of his trip, Luxon said his first day in Washington DC was a chance for him to meet with both Republican and Democrat politicians, ahead of the US presidential elections in November.
His invitation to the Nato Summit in DC this week will also give the relatively new Prime Minister the chance for his first face to face contact with the 32 Nato leaders – including potentially US President Joe Biden and new British PM Keir Starmer, as well as those from Europe and Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

It seems like we are still in the age of “where Britain Goes we follow”. what a disaster for NZ.
why in Gods name are we sucking up to the CIA and nato.Well if you are a Pope follower then you know the reason.
You can bet he won’t meet up with Trump who won’t be invited to anything. It will be all about china and Russia.
He will come back with his head full of shit. Nothing changes in the Nat world.
how many million do you think luxtard will get pressured into giving ukraine?
Oh, he wont be pressured, he will just empty his pockets!
*our pockets
fixed that for you
Big noting, or big nosing!
Whatever he gives ukraine we all know 10⁰ will filter back to the big guy.
Will luxon get to wear one of the silly shirts they have for such events?
then there is this bit of trumpet blowing.

Oh yay
Because they achieved so much as leader and deputy leader
There was ???
and ???
Nah, I got nothing.
Spinning on the same axis of low achievers.eg. Matt Doocey is no Philip Burdon.
Bridges is like the kid that at up straight in class and got the Diligence prize in Standard 4.
Not very bright, means well, gets a bit tanty when he cant articulate himself.
May even be a half decent dude; so why is he in politics.
Probably with a religious Minister father he wants to tell others what to do , like daddy. Except daddy’s flock were there voluntarily to pursue a selected sky daddy.
Brother in law of Simon O’Connor. Still not seeing an upside.
Paula Benefit is still the person with no self control that she could not stop eating – like Lange- and needed surgery to stop her compulsion. Not someone I want leading anything. Cant control her urges, how can she be a leader?
Did she sell any houses, at least?
Never trust a Godbotherer. If they’re sufficiently thick & gullible to believe in a magic man in the sky they’re a sitter to be conned by the WEF, the UN or any of the other control freaks who want to dominate us.
And yet I remain a WEF and UN hater. Probably the wrong God.
If you picked the wrong god the confusion is understandable. Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_deities_by_classification gives a good pick & mix selection of mythical deities so if you feel you might have your foot on the wrong ladder to Heaven use the school holidays profitably & find a new conduit to a cloud & harp.
In any case may I suggest that I only believe in one less god than you? 🙂
another saving and uni whinge.

Investigation into Waipareira political donations referred to Charities Registration Board
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/investigation-into-waipareira-political-donations-referred-to-charities-registration-board/DIQYISJ46VHTLHKGZTVLBVIOPA/
There are 25,000 of these that could be deregistered.
I say deregister the lot of them.
Then make them reapply , with proof.
Prove what actual good works they did.
Then only give them a 10 year registration (5 yrs is still a good idea)
Prove what good they did in the prior 10 (or 5) years.
This could easily be self funding.
At present the goo-mint (OUR Money ) pays out actual cash to one third of the donations made, while the ‘charidees’ keep 100%
This is hundreds of million$ a year.
A team of 40 could resolve this.
Then I say 80% are BS fronts.
Especially if you make the burden of proof on the charidees.
Can you tell me Oxfam under Phyllis Twyford was not dodgy.
green MP Coated took over from there.
It reeks.

It’s the tax exemption part of charities that needs to be screwed over. In too many cases the state foregoes tax on the earnings of very wealthy people so they can support scams like Greenpeace or religious brainwashing organisations.

Government may consider using PPPs to build Defence Force infrastructure?
(CCP, Blackrock or Vanguard)
The government could consider using private companies to build infrastructure at the Ōhakea Air Force base, but says security is still a top priority. ( which is code for it won’t)
https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/521556/government-may-consider-using-ppps-to-build-defence-force-infrastructure
Isn’t there an Army Corps of engineers.
Surely they have bugger all on
I mean Willie Apiata was so good at building schools and hospitals he even got a Vic Cross.
Aunty Helun told us this is what the troops in the A’Ghan were doing!!
We need builders like that.
What else are they going to do. March around the courtyard?

Dont go here then.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ek1hYb0k8_0
Wow there is a r areal movement iut there to ban these
….Dixon received comments of “good on you” through the petition, which had already attracted almost 100 signatures….
100 signatures.
This is a real groundswell movement.
Good on ya $1uffed.
Did you report fairly on the other Groundswell movement ?
Fuck right off Karen and media cronies.
To be fair, there is a good chance more than half the bikini wearers should not be in them !!
My eyes, my eyes!
100 signatures? Must be a lot of overweight feminists in New Plymouth. I thought they had all been corralled in Pak n save Whangarei.
“Dixon received comments of “good on you” through the petition, which had already attracted almost 100 signatures.’
Wow, that many – contact Stuffed –
I think the string part of the G is only at the back. The hairy bits should still get covered.
agree sags, there should be no hairy bits on a woman and if there is she should be covered up and shamed 🙂
That was pretty boring. I was hoping they were going to show us some pictures of the horror going down at the pool so we could make up our own minds on such an important issue.
Siouxsie Wiles likes swimming particularly at Judges Bay. There is a swimming pool at Judges Bay.
The thought of the Land Whale, Siouxsie Wiles in a skimpy bikini at the Judges Bay swimming pool would cause one to seek out the nearest Grief Counsellor for extended assistance and then a period of recovery at a secure wing of a Twilight Home.
Fear not. I understand that DOC floated her at high tide & towed her out to sea to rejoin her pod. 🙂

https://www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/350335893/campaign-launches-legally-protect-tino-rangatiratanga-flag

but still, what a whinging fuckwit, imo its been in the public arena for far too long to even try anything this stupid, you lose ya stupid bint so no gravy train for you!!!
and only 2k raised so far, hilarious a bro lawyer will steal all of that just to listen to your sob story for an hour or so.
I don’t think they had cotton before they were colinised.
White mans science!
Nah before his time.
The tino rangatiratanga flag is red and black on white. It is the symbol of the desire to create an ethnostate for ubermensch.
This will not end well.
If we ever get a proper faction of politicals running this country, it would be a simple matter to cut all funding to separatist nonsense. Brash was within a whisker, and he is a gormless banker, imagine if someone with real gravitas had a go. They hate the colonials so much, but they are all dole bludgers on public money (your grandkids), cut the funding off now.

Be softer than that stuff you use when caught short out hunting

Well Mr. A. Hooligan I called into the Blue Hill cafe in Owhango
The takeaway coffee was good enough.
I had a latte bowl yesterday in Waikanae.
That was excellent.
I ask if Bolger was dead yet.
Sadly, they told me, NO
the coffee in a crockery bowl will always beat that in a paper cup.
That’s how it is !
Howi, I should have met you in O Whan Go for a coffee and given you the lowdown on our (including O Whan Go’s) former MP, Spud Bolger. The Grifter, Spud, The Great Helmsman, former serial frequenter of the Taumarunui Cossie Club is not as revered here as he is in his own mind. It is however of sad news you bring that the demise of Spud has not been yet, reported. But on the other hand I am sure Spud’s residential Twilight Home will be pleased to receive his monthly payments.
Well hell
at least the old IRA- Irish Republican Azzhole – went to the Cosi club.
Hipkins only yammered about it
It was an announcement of an announcement .
Blue Duck is a bit of the track for a coffee.
had to look that place up.
I heard Spud describe co2 as poison at an address at waikato uni a few years back and here he is still poisoning the planet by continuing to exhale.

Good article but what he fails to mention is that our own civilisations have been infiltrated by savages in suits that act the same albeit in a more devious way. At least the Islamists are honest about wanting to kill you.
Psychopaths rise to power amongst us until they are noticed and removed.
I have just been informed Northports expansion plans have been turned down. This is due basically to the whinging early settler trash not getting what they wanted. How to economically destroy an entire area just to appease a very small minority who have done nothing but bludge off anyone who wants to get ahead in this area for as long as I’ve been here. I hope Northport and Marsden Maritime turn around cut their income off and fry these fuckers. If nothing else I suppose it proves appeasement never works. Their only hope now is to appeal to Shane Jones for fast to fast track the project.
Well T, that is going to fuck the plans to take the Port out of Dorkland and move it North.
Worn’t going to get enough koha, you mean!
So NZ is held to ransome again.
That pretty much sums it up.

Human Rights Commission jets to Geneva to trash NZ’s reputation
ACT is renewing calls to scrap the Human Rights Commission as it joins a reported “march of shame” to Geneva criticising New Zealand’s commitment to indigenous rights and calling the Coalition Government racist.
“This has become absurd. Hard-up Kiwi taxpayers are forking out for an activist group to fly to Switzerland and trash New Zealand on the world stage,” says ACT Justice spokesman Todd Stephenson.
“When the Commission says the Government is backsliding on indigenous rights, it gives examples like the return of local referenda for Māori wards, the disestablishment of race-based health services, and ACT’s legislation to ensure the Treaty delivers its promise of the same rights and duties for all.
“The Human Rights Commission is obsessed with race and identity. It is dismissive of basic individual rights like free speech and the right to be safe from criminals, and it actively campaigns for policies that divide Māori from non-Māori. It is disgraceful that we give it $15 million a year to do this in the name of human rights and with the false credibility of quasi-government status.
“New Zealand can be immensely proud of our record on human rights, including the ways we have redressed past wrongs committed against Māori through the Waitangi Tribunal. The prominence of Māori culture in New Zealand is a drawcard for tourists and trading partners. In trying to smear our hard-won reputation, the Commission threatens our industries and our diplomatic influence.
“If the Commission leadership want to campaign against the government, they should join a voluntary activist group or run for Parliament. New Zealanders shouldn’t be forced to fund their political activism.
“ACT’s heart goes out to members of the audience in Geneva – especially those indigenous people who’ve travelled from non-democratic countries facing very real human rights abuses, who will have to compete for speaking time against the Human Rights Commission’s hysterical tripe.”

There’s a delicious irony in the position the Greens now find themselves in over the Darleen Tana fuck-up. Here we have a female dominated, Maori centric party being sunk by a Maori female.
And it’s not the first time. Elizabeth Kerekere & Metiria Turei started the rot while Golriz Ghahraman, although not Maori provided the icing on the cake for those of us not enamoured with the lies & deceit of the far left. Chloe has made an absolute cockup by withholding the nuts & bolts of the taxpayer paid for report she quoted yesterday to unsuccessfully railroad her former associate out of parliament.
Now it appears that even were she to invoke the waka jumping legislation that her party voted for but vehemently opposed it may not be successful. A read of https://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/public/2018/0039/latest/DLM7478605.html reveals that as the much discussed report is very light on what Tana is accused of, focussing instead on what she later told the party, Chloe may not be able to satisfy the speaker of the grounds for the MP’s dismissal.
“Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive ” . 🙂
I would rather Tana to get paid to finish her term than hire the next greenie on the list!
He sounds like one that should have been drowned at birth.
The pole dancing siren is next on the list.
No. She is #20 – Doyle is #18
Fuck me loose! That pole is sure going to need an engineer’s sign-off. 🙂

stupid boy just finished sanding and a few touchups of plaster. its gay as aids working full time and then DIY once i get home… along with all the other chores.

Greg Murphy Weighs In on New Zealand’s Speed Limit Debate
Duncan Garner Podcast
Is driving slower more harm than good?
V8 Supercar legend, Greg Murphy, spoke to me about these bizarre speed limit laws that councils are holding fort on.
Whilst on the subject of puerile speed limits, in today’s issue of Pravda (formerly known as the Wairarapa Times-Age) there’s an article quoting motorcycle safety consultant Aaron Slight on the five kilometres of cable divider installed & completed early on this year on SH2 between Masterton & Carterton..
It has been whacked no less than nine times in the past six months. Naturally the nannies think that nine head on collisions have been prevented. Normal people estimate the possible reduction in the death toll at about zero.
Slight is quoted as saying that “the ‘corridor’ created by the barriers heightened a phenomenon called target fixation, where a person drove into an object that could potentially be fatal instead of avoiding it”. Together with the lowered 80kph speed limit still not removed by the useless Minister of Transport it’s a miracle that we haven’t seen people nodding off to sleep on the road!
Academic racist FOOL.
